I grow apples, plums, pears and cherries. The apple trees do pretty well without sprays, some will have worm holes in my big MacIntosh tree, but there are plenty that don't. All my other apple trees are fairly resistant. My plums and pears are fine without intervention.

But, my cherries all will eventually have one single worm inside each cherry. I obviously need to address this if we are going to eat our cherries. I live in the mountains of Washington State.

Anyone out there have a product or recipe to spray cherries that is non-toxic and organic?

Tea tree oil and neem oil are two I have heard of. Not sure how you mix it though.
